Pharrell and Kanye West: Hip-Hop's New Dynamic Duo?

Pharrell Williams and Kanye West have teamed up to do a track together for Pharrell's forthcoming solo debut, In My Mind.
According to a representative for
Interscope Records, the all-star duo and acclaimed video director Hype Williams shot a video for the currently untitled track in Miami this past weekend.
In My Mind was originally slated for release in November last year but has been pushed back several times. The album will now hit stores this summer and, in addition to Kanye, will feature collaborations with Slim Thug, Daddy Yankee, Gwen Stefan, Jay-Z and Nelly, among others.
